I am trying to get a RecordsCount, but I cannot get this to work.

ASP/VB templates with CCS.


Function Order_Header_DataSource_AfterExecuteSelect()

'Custom Code @109-73254650
' -------------------------
Count = Order_Header.DataSource.RecordsCount
' -------------------------
'End Custom Code

End Function

Am I placing this code in the right event? "AfterExecuteSelect"

I have and thats not going to work, besides being a really sloppy apporach for something that should be retreviable via the classes.

First, if your using ASP, the Property is "RecordCount (ASP)" not "RecordsCount(PHP)".

The way I use "RecordCount" is as follows:

1. Open the page with the form you wish to have a total record count. This form is usally a grid form. Within that page I sometimes create a separate form to display just the record count.
2. Select a place on the grid form where you would like the record count to be displayed. Using the Toolbox, select the Forms Tab, Select "Label" to insert a new label. Optional: Rename the label to count or total_count.
3. Select the Label Properties and set the following:
a. Control Type = "Code Expression"
b. Control Source = Recordset.RecordCount()
c. Data Type = Integer

That's it

Hope this help even though it doesn't seem the direction you want to go.

I would love to know why the counting sheep example is sloppy... it simply calles the CodeCharge created recordcount function directly using the default value. As simple as pie.

Sorry, the post above wasn't by dwelsh. I was copy/pasting the topic and accidentally pasted the author.

Personally I think the solution mentioned in the counting sheep example is much quicker and simpler, and it still takes into account the Where clause.

I don't see a reason to do it as described in the Yes knowledge board example.

I tried this using PHP, and it did not work.

Label Properties:
- Name: totals
- Source Type: Code Expression
- Control Source: $DBConnection1->RecordsCount
- Data Type: integer

This just shows 0 (zero) on label field.

What does it wrong ?

Thanks.

CCDLookUp("COUNT(*)", "directory_items", "category_id="&CCToSQL(category_id,"integer"), DBConn)
